Great point Jock. I've always thought if I were employed somewhere where there was a uniform then I'd better adhere to that uniform or I'd be looking for other employment. It is up to the owner of the shop to determine that uniform.

Some here may think there are reasons for the staff to wear the kilt however I'm sure there are several kilt shops worldwide that do not in fact wear the kilt. I know of several tartan shops local to me, where most of the staff anyway do not wear the kilt. In one shop I frequent quite often the gent is fond of wearing a tartan waistcoat but I've never seen him in a kilt, with another the only time I've seen the owner in a kilt is at an event, never in the shop, it has never made one jot of difference to me.
